| CCA NC Applauds Division Proclamation on Red Drum Harvest |
Dr. Louis Daniel, III the Director of the Division of Marine Fisheries has by proclamation set guidelines for the commercial harvest of red drum during the fall season (September to April). While the Coastal Conservation Association of North Carolina (CCA NC) is opposed to destructive fishing practices in our state waters, CCA NC believes that these regulations do take positive steps towards ensuring that the red drum fishery is not a species targeted for harvest by commercial fishermen.
CCANC applauds the Division for its attempt at conserving our state fish and is hopeful that these regulations regarding the commercial harvest of red drum will remain in effect throughout the fall season and that steps will be taken to enforce the 100,000 pound cap to commercial fishermen for this period.
